Jacina checking to the head - Not sure if he wont pick up more games out. However he Salters and Ryan (plus KWall) probably the pick. Big hill to climb. As usual at least 2 goals sloppy play. Good 3rd period, but overall clearly second best. Good web coverage, although I felt the close ups could have been used more. At times the puck was not easy to pick up without the close ups.

Decent commentary when the line held up, but sadly it wasn't holding up much.
3 goals seems a long way back, but at one point looked like a cricket score was coming so got a slim chance at least.

Whether its down to injuries, suspensions, bad signings, coaching or what ever else. I thought the team gave it their all tonight. Unfortunately I didn't think Belfast got out of second gear and 5-2 is a respectable (even fortunate) scoreline. Its evident that our love affair with the Challenge Cup is coming to a toothless end.

Norton down injured. Belfast fans booing. Classy I was a bit startled by that - it's not usual. Opinion amongst people sat by me was that it was as blatant a dive as we've seen for a long time. He went down like he was shot, but as expected, was out for his next shift. He's a good young player - he doesn't want to use Levers as a role model!

It must have hurt. Didnt look like a dive to me. Mind you lets not forget where Levers developed his art.

Wonder if they'll be able to forgive and forget Norton getting injured... Get an early goal on Tuesday and ill have hope. But we NEED that first goal. If Belfast get it, it's goodnight.

On the balance of the game ill take 5-2, after the first I thought it was going to be 7 or 8. We started ok, looked like we were actually going with 3 at the back and hit on the counter. I feared the worse when we got a pp, we abandoned this tactic and were hit on the counter ourselves, 1-0 and then Belfast took control, got a few lucky bobbles but finished very well.
When we actually shot at murphy he looked ropey like he always does, he pushed our first into his own net and our second went straight through him. After our first goal keefe takes a wild swing with his stick across the mid section of one of out players, well worth a video review (3 games on the Henley scale), no call and giants go straight up the other end and score.
Can't talk about norton diving, the check to the head was a soft call, ref was conned, wasn't going to call it till the giant went down clutching his face, waited for the late call, then popped up with a smile and skated off. Diving is epidemic I'm afraid so I applaud norton for his efforts.
We matched them in the third, both teams looked tired tbf. As has been said, a couple of early goals for us at the nic and it's game on, but it's still a monumental ask.

Hicks was terrible all evening for both sides, and for me topped it off when Adey clearly called for a time out and Hicks just shook his head at him. You may feel you matched the Giants in the 3rd, but even as one of your own fans stated the Giants seemed to be in cruise control after the 5th goal went in, and looked to have more gears to go through.

I agree about the time out call, everyone in the arena saw adey calling for it, they even put it on the big screen and the officials still missed it, sums things up really.
Cruising at 5-2 halfway through a cup final? If so, not a great idea, should have gone for the kill. IMO they were tired and we matched them, that's the only glimmer of hope I have. If giants could have finished us, they should have.

It was jacina. Last play of the game and he comes high on Cheverie from behind, looks a bad hit wouldn't be surprised to see him given a ban come Monday morning.

Automatic one match maybe? But they get reviewed Monday, think its 3 for a check to the head these days. So you might be two imports suspended for Tuesday.
Honestly such a stupid hit, last min of the game and he does that. Gives you guys a bigger mountain to climb if its deemed a check to the head. Very stupid of him.

Bans have to be handed out before they play their next game.

If you watch the replay, you'll see Keefe was retaliating for Boxill making no effort to stop and knocking Murphy over..who is playing with an injured glove hand. If he gets 3 games for that, I'll wear a Panthers jersey for a month.
